The Intention Economy
Caveat venditor—let the seller beware While marketers look for more ways to get personal with customers, including new tricks with “big data,” customers are about to get personal in their own ways, with their own tools. Soon consumers will be able to: • Control the flow and use of personal data • Build their own loyalty programs • Dictate their own terms of service • Tell whole markets what they want, how they want it, where and when they should be able to get it, and how much it should cost And they will do all of this outside of any one vendor’s silo. This new landscape we’re entering is what Doc Searls calls The Intention Economy—one in which demand will drive supply f...

Strugglebook
"Strugglebook: A Logical Search for the Truth of GOD" explores the probability for the existence of God based primarily on the logic derived from science. While it addresses issues applicable to theology, it is not a theological work. There are literally hundreds of books on this subject, most detailing a standard set of arguments. This book follows that pattern for the first part but then extends itself into a series of coalescing arguments built on the latest science, all of which results in a unique presentation on the subject. Forming a conclusion respecting the reality of God on something as cold as logic is contrary to approaches generally considered acceptable to religious organizatio...
The Principles of Scientific Management
This paper has been written: First. To point out, through a series of simple illustrations, the great loss which the whole country is suffering through inefficiency in almost all of our daily acts. Second. To try to convince the reader that the remedy for this inefficiency lies in systematic management, rather than in searching for some unusual or extraordinary man. Third. To prove that the best management is a true science, resting upon clearly defined laws, rules, and principles, as a foundation. And further to show that the fundamental principles of scientific management are applicable to all kinds of human activities, from our simplest individual acts to the work of our great corporations, which call for the most elaborate cooperation. And, briefly, through a series of illustrations, to convince the reader that whenever these principles are correctly applied, results must follow which are truly astounding.

Beyond the Frontier
Beyond the Frontier: Innovations in First-Year Composition is a compilation of the latest research in first-year composition presented at, and inspired by, the Rocky Mountain Modern Language Association’s “Beyond the Frontier” panels. The book is divided similarly into panels, with the editors having collected a sampling of the composition practices that will stand the test of time. The purpose of the book is to present the reader with innovative methods and techniques for incorporation into the first-year composition classroom, or simply to provide food for thought – passing the torch, as it were – so that new research can be conducted and new findings disseminated. The division of the book mimics the panels one would typically find on a particular day during the Rocky Mountain Modern Language Association Conference, providing the reader with a taste of what it’s like to be in the room with first-year composition scholars.
Redefining Work Health and Safety

The ISMF is introduced and applied throughout, providing a holistic approach to safety management. The concluding chapter reflects on future challenges and directions, while appendices offer a practical safety management system template. Overall, the book equips safety professionals with insights and strategies for creating a culture of safety excellence.

The Role of Consciousness in Governance
The Role of Consciousness in Governance explains how the Divine Will and Plan for Humanity must be manifested on Earth through the governments of all countries. For the Divine destiny of Humanity to become a reality, the governments on Earth must be perfect reflections of the one Above. The book reveals that the Spiritual Hierarchy, consisting of Adepts and Initiates, which has always had the responsibility for guiding the affairs of Humanity, is now no longer operating in secret due to the recognition and acceptance by Humanity of their existence and function which is a direct result of mans evolving awareness and consciousness. This Spiritual Hierarchy constitutes the New World Order, whose nucleus is now on Planet Earth and represents a new species of organic life. The book concludes by explaining both the pivotal role the United States of America plays in fulfilling the Divine Plan for the planet, and the creation of the New World Order, in order to establish the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. This is demonstrated by the importance of the esoteric document, the Declaration Independence, which was given to the USA to guide Humanity towards enlightenment.
